Nocturna is a Martial Arts warrior from the Land of Mida, on the eastern continent of Primus. He has the ability to deliver a powerful martial arts kick. A silent, mysterious figure, Nocturna's chief weapons are his stealth and immense powers of concentration. Like the stereotypical Kung Fu character, Nocturna prefers peace to war. He is the soldier/philosopher of the group, constantly looking for passive ways of defeating his enemies. His weapon is the silent Phaser Bow and he is a master of martial arts.

Though frequently told to be a martial artist, the comics published by Ehapa in Germany and as part of the Adventure Magazine in the UK portrayed Nocturna having psychic powers.

Trivia (Clawful94): At this point, it is unclear who voiced Nocturna in the "New Adventures Of He-Man" animated series. He was mostly used as a background character in the cartoon series, but he did speak.
